5/13/25 | Padres Top Prospect Has Back Injury, Will Miss Significant Time. In a significant blow to the San Diego Padres' farm system, the team's top prospect is expected to miss a considerable portion of the season, likely returning at some point in July. Catcher Ethan Salas is dealing with a stress reaction in his lower back, which has kept him out since April 17, when he had to leave a game that day for a pinch runner due to the back pain he experienced. It was not until April 26 that he was placed on the injured list due to a lack of progress in his back rehabilitation at the Padres' complex in Arizona. Padres president of baseball operations A.J. Preller believes that the injury will not linger in the long term; rather, the real disappointment stems from his lack of playing time and, therefore, development time this season in Double-A.
